“Where’s Marcus? Didn’t he come with you two?”
After ordering the drinks, Pei Yunge asked casually.
Suddenly, Jasmin and Titch froze, not daring to meet Pei Yunge’s eyes.
“N-No.”
Pei Yunge felt that something was wrong and her tone became colder. “He didn’t come?”
At this moment, the two of them did not dare to speak.
“You’re hiding something from me.”
Pei Yunge said carelessly, as if she was just stating a fact.
“Teacher, we…”
Both of their expressions changed, afraid that they would make Pei Yunge unhappy.
“Okay, you should go back early after you finish your drinks.”
Pei Yunge’s tone was indifferent and there was no emotion in her eyes.
However, the moment Jasmin and Titch heard this, they panicked.
“Teacher, we didn’t mean to hide it from you on purpose.” Titch couldn’t help but tell the truth.
“Yes… It’s just that something happened with Marcus, so he can’t come. He… didn’t want us to tell you.”
Jasmin’s voice became softer and softer, but Pei Yunge heard him clearly.
“What happened?” Pei Yunge furrowed her eyebrows unconsciously.
“It’s…”
Jasmin and Titch looked at each other. In the end, Titch told her everything. “Marcus has been reported for destructive competition and has been suspended.”
After all…
The computing institute Marcus was at was not a private institute like the A.M. Computing institute. The R Nation’s computing technology institute was a public institute.
“Suspended?”
Pei Yunge furrowed her eyebrows unconsciously.
Although Marcus had been nominated for Busaka this year, he had not won an award. However, his status in R Nation’s computing field was irrefutable.
“Hmm… Originally, our scientific research centre said that they could let Marcus take up the Inspector position this year, but Marcus was reported at this critical moment.”
The people in the institute were also very worried, but someone had already taken over the position of Inspector.
Marcus had been suspended and he didn’t know if he could come back.
“Do you know the reason?” Pei Yunge poked the straw in the cup.
“They suspect that Marcus is using you to create destructive competition.”
Titch glanced at Pei Yunge and said.
Indeed.
During this period, the name Y.G. had been highly praised in the scientific research field and she was the most anticipated newcomer.
Naturally, all the attention was on her.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the scientific research field might be the cleanest existence. However, in fact, as long as there was someone, it was impossible to avoid the good and evil of human nature.
“Because of me?”
Pei Yunge’s eyes darkened.
She didn’t really care about her reputation, so she never cared about her reputation outside.
However, she never thought that it would affect Marcus.
“Teacher, don’t blame yourself. You’re a victim in this matter. Besides, Marcus knows that you’ve had a lot of trouble in your country, so he doesn’t want you to be implicated…”
Jasmin comforted her.
“Okay, I think I’ve understood what has happened.” Pei Yunge nodded.
Those people were saying that her academic results in the industry were fake and they were using this to attack Marcus.
After chatting for a while.
Pei Yunge received a message.
[Hello, is this Y.G.? I’m Inspector Jones. I’m very happy to work with you in the future.]
“The new Inspector is called Jones?”
Pei Yunge casually glanced at the content below and asked carelessly.
“Yes.”
Jasmin had just nodded when he realized that Jones might have sent a message to Pei Yunge.
However…
In the next second, Pei Yunge blocked this number without even looking at it.
